To all whom it may, co no eqm: I

Be it known that I, MAX HERZBERG, a Cllll: zen of'the' United States, residing, at New York, in thecounty of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new anduseful Improvements in Patterns, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable'others skilled in the art to which-itappertains to make and use the-same; f I

This invention relates to an improvement in patterns'and pattern" sets, such as are utilized, for example in producing i garment;

It is an object of the invention 'to furnish an article'of the nature stated, the properemployment of whichwill readily .be apparent-even to a personnot versed-in the use of articles'of; this type: V

A furthenobj'ect ofthe invention is to be predicatedto the provision of: a pattern or pattern set'which will-rbe-comp'lete in itself in that by: the 'pr'acticerof t'hepresent invention itbecomes unnecessary to refer to instructions carried by a separate sheet or envelope;

Another object is th'at"ofa providinga patternunit or set adapted =to be used in producing an article portion or: portions correspendingv to the pattern units, which article portions may be assembled insuch'a manner that a perfect article isread-ily producible by the layman. v 4 1 Other objects :of the" invention will in part be obvious and will in part appear hereinafter. c

The invention accordingly comprises an article ofmanufacture-possessing: the features, properties, and -t'he relation ,of 'el'ements which will bee'xempli fie'd in the article hereinafter describedand the scope of the application of which will :indicated in the claims.

For the fuller'understanding 30f the nature and objects of the invention reference should be had to the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which: r Fig. l is afa-ce View of oneform of pattern unit: produced within the 'terms of-I the present invention; and

Figs; 2 and 3 are similar, but'f'ragmentary enlarged, views of different portions of this unit.

Referring: primarily to the first figure, it

will be observed in the present embodiment that the reference 'num'eral 5 indicates "one unit of-a pattern set,-this unit being; prefer ably made of tissue paper, or other suitable material, and being convenientlypf that type known as a cut pattern, in which the margins of-the pattern bod-y correspond tolrthe margins of the unit to be produced '7 with the assistance thereof. Indicia may beincop porated in this-unit, as for example the' edges of the samemay benotched "as. at 6,'its body being formed with perforations :7 andcarry; mga mark 8, which latteriindicates the-preferreddisposition of the unit relative to the weave ofthe material which is to be outwith the assistance oftheunit,

In addition to the foregoing; indieia, 11

benoted in the view referred :to-that the un it 5 may'present upjonfits outer face, aduplicate in miniature of its body, as has beenindicated at 9; This representation of the'unit, 1n addition to beingof a similar outlinaalso illustrated in" detail, it'will befnot-edithat the v preferably: incorporates markings -10.-an d 1l, -indicating}respectively the notches 6-an d markin'gsflO and 11 are identified by=su-itable characters adjacent which, in the presentinstance, instruction phrases 12 are displayed. By means ofthesecharacters and instruction phrases it will; be obvious that-no, difficulty/Will be experienced inmatching and otherwise properly correlating the. various units and sections ofthe pattern itself-L The miniaturerepresentation 9 may, present -v ad ditional 1nd1'c1a-, as for example the" part cbe identifiedyby a reference; letter as at 14, which letter is carried within the'body' 'ofzthe so that no difliculty will be experienced-in this collection;

ular'patternsection which it represents may Also in the present instance it 'willfbe tiv'ely= identified, and suitable instructions 15 may be provided 1 atthis: point.

Finally referring to Fig. 3, in which according to the present embodiment the lowermost portion of the pattern body 5 has been illustrated, it will be noted that in the present instance the indicia on each pattern section of the set may include a representation in miniature of all the pattern sections, as at 16, 17 18, 19, 2O (corre: sponding to 5), 21' and 22-all' of these representations being identified so that-the corresponding sections which they depict may readily be determinedby an unskilled person, and further including the various salient features of markings, etc., etc; Also in this group of indicia and preferably im. mediately below the same, as has been indicated at 23, the method of laying out the various pattern sections to best advantage on the material to be out has been shown, having in mind different widths and lengths of the material, it being furthermore noted that this group of indicia may embrace suitable clarifying instructions.

From the foregoii'ig it will be appreciated that by means of the present invention a I pattern unit or section is presented, which preferably forms one element of a complete pattern set, this section being of such a nature that all necessary instructionsforthe manipulation of the'individual sections, the entire set or both, may-be included within its area in such a manner that an unskilled person is capable of using the article or articles with facility. of'the sections bearing this indicia may be printed or otherwise suitably treated in order that the miniature representation of the section may appear in sharp relief upon the face of the section, or if desired this miniature representation itself might be so tinted or printed as to achieve the effect desired. r 1

Furthermore it will be noted, incident to the manner in which the indicia embracing the miniature representation is applied to the pattern body, that no confusion can arise in the mind ofthe-operator employing the same; In other words, the margins of the 'body 5 are preferably free from all confusing indicia in that in the present instance the representation in miniature is located at a point relatively remote from these edges, and also due to the fact that the outline of-this representation-is preferably so disposed upon the body of the pattern unit that its various portions are substantially pan allel to corresponding portions of the section edges of the body 5. H V

Thus it will be understood that all the objects of this invention are accomplished, and since certain changes may be made in the above article and different embodiments If desired, the body above description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.

It is also to be understood that the following claims are intended to cover all of the generic andispecific features of the invention herein described, and all statements of the with instructions interpretative of the guide marks associatedwith the same.
